Newbie "Juliet vs Romeo temple width comparison" question

The person I got it from said he never wore it, just not his style. Yes, the nose bridge has no movement only when it try to twist it. Right now, it kinda feels like I have a hose clamp on my head when wearing it.

Are you sure it's authentic? Want to post some pics for verification?
 
First metals are always funky feeling, I think because they're so different than what you're used to as far as
Oakleys go. And any other brand for that matter. This is the was sun glasses should look and feel and work! Like @Xs and Os stated, keep wearing them and pretty soon everything else will feel strange!:)
 
Maybe if I wore my x-metals to a planet in another dimension they'd get fused to me like Dr. Doom in that new Fantastic Four movie that bombed the other year. And that I'd get that cool power to make people's heads explode. Not in an erotic way, I mean.
 
here are some pretty crude measurements; Romeo was a good few mm wider than the Juliet.

I've not seen anyone measure the width before. Great idea. Just wondering if you are measuring inside edge to inside edge or what points you are using.

as i said in my post, the measurements were a bit crude but i found it awkward holding the tape steady whilst looking through the camera! i was trying to measure the arm screws centre to centre. i think my pics give a fair representation of the differences....

I have taken measurements before between an XX and a Romeo and found them to be the same width from screw centres, although I am more than sure there will be a natural variance between different frames.

Romeo 1 Vs XX
